UPLOADING NEW SOFTWARE VERSIONS
21.1 OVERVIEW
The CPU VII provides the SYSTEM 3505 with a RS-232 serial port to be used to upload new
program versions to the unit. The serial port is connected to the CPU VI by a 9-conductor
plug-in ribbon cable. The other end of the cable has a standard DB-9 female connector that
exits from the SYSTEM 3505 via the rear panel. This connector allows the user to connect a
computer to the SYSTEM 3505 to update the system program without removing the cover of
the unit.
The CPU VII runs on an 80C188 micro controller and uses FLASH memory to store the
operating program. Users can upgrade their operating program by downloading the latest
version from the Digitize website (
http://www.digitize-inc.com).
